2007-05-29 Thread matt nicholson
rhythmbox 0.11.0 has been released. I'm building ti right now, so i
cannot say b/r/i yet, though, it looks good, and as the 0.10.90 release
is almost identical, i wouldn't expect any breakage. will update
shortly.

acctually, when building pedgin in prevu, a gaim*>deb is generated, for the
sole purpose of allowing upgrades. since ubuntu-desktop depends on gaim, and
the new gaim package is nothing , or than depending on pidgin (well it
cleans up some things i think), the upgrade path is clean, and doesn't
require ubuntu-desktop etc to be rebuilt.

Just tried in prevu now that pidgin hit the repos, fails with:

   -> Cannot install libebook1.2-dev; apt errors follow:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

I built it from source (well, not ubuntu source, but the orig source fine, so

Okay, forget all about those build errors. I had been playing around
with some evn variable to run some paralell make commands and ran into
something similar while building the rhythmbox release canidate. i think
one process was looking for something the other hadn't finished yet. as
soon as i reverted all my problems went away.

in any case, banshee 0.11.3 just built, installed, and runs fine from

follow up on the web-interface idea

2006-01-18 Thread matt nicholson
Last month (late Dec.) i submitted an idea for a web based interface
for submitting possible backports. basically a user could enter a
package name, and some checks would be done to see if teh package can
be backported (blacklists, etc) then the system would attempt to
backport it. a few other features such as giving the user their binary
right away (with warning it hasn't been tested, etc) were given too.

i didn't start working on it right away because i was at home for
winter break and didn't have good access to my build system/server to
start setting up the enviorment. 

so now i'm back at school, in my software design class, and we have to
come up with a project to work on in a 3 person group for teh semester.
tons of documentation etc. i'm pretty sick of doing pointless projects
for school, so, i would like to do something that would acctually be
used. after thinking for a minute, i realized this is something we
could do, the web-interface that is.

so, has anyone started on this? i just don't want to repeat someone
eles work etc. 

i would, of course be willing to give updates etc, and would want to
make everything availible under the gpl or something similar, of
course. 

so, do anyone have any issues with this being done as a project for
school this spring? we could do most of our planning early, and, if we
get it all done on time, it should be all set to be used for dapper a
month or so after release. 

let me know.


ps: any bad spelling/typo's you can contribute to my dislocated thumb.

Re: setting up a backports environment

2005-11-30 Thread matt nicholson
alright, i think i'm basically set up but just have one more question 
to ask. i jsut want to make sure i'm going about everything right.


for testing i backported deskbar-applet as follows, was just wondering 
if i was missing anything or what not (i;m obviously new at packaging)


got my chroot via pbuilder.
login to the chroot.
apt-get build-dep deskbar-applet
apt-get source deskbar-applet (fetches all sources from dapper repos)
cd deskbar-applet-x.x/
dpkg-buildpackage -d

leaves me with the .deb, pending ant errors of course.

anything else? any suggestions? whats the procedure once the build 
completes and everything works fine? just notify the list to have 
someone "official" build it or what?


thanks for the help again.

hmm, okay. one question regarding pbuilder/ubp-build.py. if
your using
ubp-build.py inside the pbuilder chroot..how do you fetch the
dapper
source packages? do you just do it by hand, or can you change
where teh
sources are fetch from, so its all automatic?

You don't use ubp-build.py inside pbuilder... ubp-build.py
accomplishes tasks similar to pbuilder, with you in command instead of
pbuilder inside the chroot.

Either way, configuration of sources is done by adding deb-src lines
for Dapper, whether it's /etc/apt/sources.list inside the chroot or
the pbuilder config file.


thanks for the help getting set up guys.

meh, either way is fine... I've just never really caught on

pbuilder... At times I appreciate the speed of the

approach to figuring out what it takes for a package to

I've been playing with Device Mapper's Copy-on-Write

functionality for

making all changes to the chroot temporary.

I run ubp-build.py inside a chroot, which is

How about using PBuilder? it guarantees a clean

chroot, and

is really

handy to use. See

http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto for

instructions


+1 from me since I've never had any issues with

pbuilder and

it's create
for testing out dependancy's.

Re: Rhythmbox 0.9.2

2005-11-29 Thread matt nicholson
odd, cause i got the newest libgpod and rhythmbox to build just perfect 
last night about 30 minutes after it was released, and ran into no 
issues with updating dbus etc.

On Nov 29, 2005, at 11:54 AM, Mike Basinger wrote:

It look like libgpod is dependent on libdbus-1-1 (>= 0.50) and 
libdbus-glib-1-1 (>= 0.50). I'm unsure messing around with the dbus 
files.

And it exists on the master archive; it'll take a little while to 
propagate

to the mirrors.  At any rate, it's open for business.

what is probably a question you are sick of being asked.

2005-11-03 Thread matt nicholson
now, i know UBZ is going on. and i know this question has been asked a 
few times already, least i would imagine it has been. so, in advance, 
i'm sorry if they don't want to hear this again. i do not aim to make 
people pissed, i'm just curious.


when/will breezy backports open?

i'm not asking about extras (w32codecs, etc) cause i know some of them 
have been pulled due to legal issues.


what i'm asking about is regular backports, like rhythmbox 0.9.1  from 
dapper, backported to breezy, etc etc etc.


the main reason i ask is actually because of rhythmbox (and banshee 
maybe ). alot of good thing have been happening in rhythmbox as of late 
and i think people(ie, those whom do not build from cvs/source 
constantly) would like to have the newest version and all its great new 
features. plus as far as i know its already in the dapper tree.


so, my question, again, is, when, or better yet, will, breezy backports 
open? is help needed? i would be more than willing to help, so long as 
someone guided be at least through my first "backport". I can say that 
the newest rhythmbox is working perfectly on breezy with all of the 
crazy new features enabled (DAAP, auidoscrobbler support, etc)


once again sorry if this has been asked a hundered times, i don't mean 
to nag, i just haven't found an actual answer, the forums are all 
speculation as far as i can see.


thanks.

matt
